I could spend 20yrs learning and still won't be able to produce shots like that, Photography is like many other things, some people are born naturals.

Some amazing stuff on this thread, to be honest I didn't know what constituted a good picture until actually looking at some of the photos here, they are insane. The clarity and focus is superb.

Please don't think I'm comparing because I am fully aware how inferior they are, i have an expensive camera but no idea how to use it and wouldn't even consider myself an amateur, that would be far too kind.

Ive got some amazing situations for photos but not the ability it seems, quite blurry, not sharp and ot even straight some of the time!! if some of you folks where where I was when these were taken then the results would be breathtaking. But this is what I have....

(The spider eating hornet and the Eagle were taken on my iPad)

As with most things, practice makes perfect. I had my first SLR aged 10, so i've been doing this for 32 years now.

The black and white character stuff really floats my boat. Sometimes I think I'd rather do it all in B&W.

I need to do more black and white, but the subjects I shoot most don't really work in monochrome. I'll have to make the effort i think.

That's a good one Doc, looks like a picture from the good old days.

Parlay's pictures are very good to, love the Kangaroos on the beach, I've never imagined seeing them venturing onto beaches.

I'll happily take a wedding on personal recommendation (friends, family, etc) but i don't really push that side of my photography too much. I think i ended up doing two or three last year.

The Kangaroos are from a place called Cape Hillsborough. They are there without fail at the crack of dawn digging for worms and whatever they can find. If you ever venture to North Queensland then its worth a visit, there are whales dolphins, turtles, eagles - everything you can imagine... and the place is pretty much deserted in terms of people. amazing photo opportunities.

Oh and the instect was actually from there too, we stumbled upon it while bush walking. We were getting very close as the spider was huge and couldnt believe that what looked like a giant wasp was dragging it.

We did some googling on our return and it turns out it has one of the most painful stings known to man!! it was dragging a paralysed spider back to its home where he would lay eggs on it and the paralysed spider would serve as food for the young once hatched.

gruseome.

I liked the almost "infinite" quality of the breakwater heading off into the distance. Wouldn't have worked anything like as well in colour IMO.

It's ok to have a big fook off camera but quite another to take the shots seen in this thread.
